Has the Homestead release been... released?

MissBizz · January 2017

I'm usually pretty good at stalking keeping up with the news articles, twitter tweets and all that Zos stuff... but I don't recall ever seeing a release date for Homestead. Has there been one? Outside of "February"?

As history repeats itself, going into week 3 of PTS next week we should see the release (on PC) the week of Jan.31.. just don't recall seeing an actual date.

It JUST went onto the public test server, don't expect to see it on the Live servers for a long while. I heard somewhere around a couple months.

Actually looked it up, nevermind, it's in February. Don't worry about the exact date so much though, it's not even February yet.

No specific date yet, only that it will be February; hoping to find out soon; and that it will be early Feb and not February 28th. Although if it is later in February I wouldn't mind if it is because they added some simple storage feature.

....you're kidding right? @ArchMikem I can't remember PTS builds ever going on for longer the 4-5 weeks...

I just think that it's a telltale sign that A) PTS usually goes 4 weeks, as well they tend to flip NA/EU transfer half way through.. and that's arleady coming up next week.. which likely means we are already half done PTS test time before it goes live.

[edit] So my guess is the week of Feb.1.. or the week after. That way it's February as they mentioned, and the (probably) 2 week later release on consoles would also still be in February.

You're gonna have to reread my post, you caught it right before I made my little edit.

I've been wondering this too, so I did a little brain work. According to the Homestead article, they will be releasing on February for BOTH PC AND consoles. Typically, console release is 2 weeks after PC release. That means that in order for both to release in February, PC release would have to be during the first two weeks of the month, for sure.

It's not an official date, but it's at least nice to assume it'll be the early half of February for PC.

Sorry bud! Yes I knew they had mentioned February. It's not so much as a worry as it is just wondering.
